Dietary protein levels in Piaractus brachypomus submitted to extremely acidic or alkaline pH [PDF]
The objective this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary protein levels in pirapitinga, Piaractus brachypomus, submited to extremely acidic or alkaline pH. Juveniles were fed for 20 days with three diets with different crude protein (CP) levels (25.3, 32.4 and 40.0%) and then separated in five groups (n=10, three replicates each) which were kept

Milt cryopreservation facilitates native fish’s constant production of commercial interest. However, it can damage spermatozoa (sptz) due to the osmotic stress of diluents and low temperatures. This study compares spermatic quality in fresh (SF) and cryopreserved (CS) milt in B. amazonicus for 24 h, 1 month, and 3 months.
